Just as Apple wraps up one lawsuit with Nokia, they have been hit with another one by a Phoenix based company named iCloud Communications. iCloud Communications, a VoIP vendor, claims that Apple's new iCloud causes confusion with competing products, and has harmed their image because anytime someone hears the name 'iCloud', they will now think of Apple instead of iCloud Communications. Super-Instant Pre-publication 5000W Turbo Update from Thom: ...and we have another one.

As I posted previously: the facts are iCloud Communications never filed for a trademark at the federal level. They didn't even file!

It doesn't cost all that much to file and maintain a trademark's legal registration. As such, this certainly looks like a money grab on the part of iCloud Communications. I expect it'll be an uphill battle for them, and it should be.
